Pastor Steve Lindenmeyer preaches from 2 Peter 3: 1-7. Mockers are nothing new. In a world that scoffs at the promises of God, Peter calls the church to do one thing: remember. Remember the words of the prophets. Remember the commands of the apostles. Remember that Christ is coming back. This week, we continue in 2 Peter 3, where Peter arms believers with the one thing that silences every doubt — the unshakeable Word of God.

Pastor Ben Miller preaches from 2 Peter 2:17-22. In his final indictment against the false teachers, Peter ends chapter 2 with an exposing treatment of the motives of these individuals. However, there are questions that remain for us: Why do the false teachers have “success?” Why do they gain a following in the first place? Moreover, what does it look like for God’s people to do more than just stand on guard against their message, but to be people who recognize their message for what it is: nonsense?

Pastor AJ Rankin preaches from 2 Peter 2:10b-16. Previously, Peter warned us that false teachers are real and their judgment is certain. This week, he goes even deeper by building a profile so God’s people know exactly what to look for. In 2 Peter 2:10-16, Peter exposes the reckless arrogance, unchecked appetite, and greedy corruption that mark false teachers. God loves His church too much to leave them unequipped on how to spot these threats.

Pastor Steve Lindenmeyer preaches from Psalm 42.

Pastor Steve Lindenmeyer preaches from 2 Peter 2:1-10a. False teachers are real, and they're dangerous, but so is the God who guards His people. This week we return to 2 Peter 2:1-10, where Peter issues a sobering warning: false teachers will come, their motives are destructive, their followers are many, and their judgment is sure. But don't miss the other side of Peter's message: in the middle of deception and danger, God's power and protection are guaranteed.

Pastor Steve Lindenmeyer preaches from Exodus 2:1-10. This week, we look at a familiar story with an unfamiliar hero. Moses’ mother will capture our attention as we discover her conviction and courage in the midst of severe hardship. We will see her choose faith over fear and sacrifice over selfishness as she entrusts her son into the hands of a mighty God.

Pastor Ben Miller preaches from 2 Peter 1:20-21. Peter concludes chapter 1 with a final word to his readers before engaging the false teachers in chapter 2. What does Peter point toward that will anchor God’s people for the days ahead? The written Word of God. Christians are self-proclaimed ‘people of The Book,’ and in this week’s sermon, we immerse ourselves in the same truth: The Word of God is sturdy and sufficient for the people of God in all places and at all times.

Pastor Jonathan Suggs preaches from 2 Peter 1:12-19. “Christians believe in fairy tales.” “The Bible is just a bunch of made up stories.” Of course, we hear these accusations in our own culture, but they are certainly not new. This week, we see Peter—motivated by his looming death—respond to this serious charge in his own day. Concerned that his readers will be crippled by doubt, he persuasively shows why we can all have concrete hope in the amazing claims of the Bible.

Pastor AJ Rankin continues our series and preaches from 2 Peter 1:5-11. This week, the apostle Peter — a man who failed spectacularly at faith, self-control, steadfastness, and love — calls us to make every effort to grow in the qualities that mark a genuinely transformed life. The grace that saved you is the same grace fueling you to grow. This is not a self-optimization checklist. It's applied theology from someone who knows what it costs to grow.

Pastor AJ Rankin begins our series on 2 Peter and preaches from 2 Peter 1:1-4. We live in a world drowning in false narratives. These stories overpromise and underdeliver, offering more and leaving you empty. The first-century church was facing the same pressure. False teachers had infiltrated the congregation, denying the return of Christ, distorting Scripture, and pulling people away from the truth. Peter did not respond with panic, but rather with reminders of the promises of God. Before he identifies the threat, he anchors his people in what is already and irrevocably true — that through the knowledge of Jesus Christ, God has already granted his people everything they need for life and godliness. Everything. The foundation he lays here is one that no false teacher, no cultural pressure, and no personal failure can erode. Click here to access the study guide.
